Drilled ME a Smokin Inferno tonight!!!!!!!!!
« on: July 07, 2005, 06:39:08 PM »
Yesssssssss!!!!!!!!

I drilled me a Smokin Inferno tonight.  

Mini Review....  

Drilled the pin out with the ring finger, cg straight down, no hole.  This ball is a little longer than my Absolute Inferno, and has a sharper break point.  Hooks about 3 and 1 more than my Absolute, but can open up the lane better too.  Could move left about 7 and 2, use a little more hand and could spank the pins around.  Absolute would not recover from there, really weak 10 pin was the best I could make it do.

The ball did not over react when I mashed into the dry track area too soon.  Had a hard time getting the ball to go high in the pocket.  Actually, had a hard time doing anything but striking.

I think this ball is cleaner/easier through the front part of the lane.  Didn't have the big rev up in the middle third of the lane, but was very controllable.  Would not call this ball long, just clean.  Did I mention it hit like a train!!!!!?????!!!!!!

Not sure about how much difference there is between this ball and a polished Absolute Inferno, will have to check that out next week.  For you Blazing Inferno lovers, the picture of the Smokin core looks like the Blazing???  What U think????

Think this ball may change the hype scale!!!!  

I lliike it aallloootttt

So what you're saying is.. It's a Strong Pearl Reactive.

What kind of shot were you throwing this on? The way you're saying it's recovering I'm having a hard time imagining it's anything but a THS.

I have had mine for about a week now...and i guess its all drill specific...but my smokin goes longer and snappes harder than my absolute...but my absolute still has move of an over hook and will rip back in the oil...they compliment eachother well though.  Smokin is very angular...great carry.
